Description

SimplySimplify (Professional edition) 2020, silkscreen on EXTREME Post-it on Museum Rising Board, signed and numbered, edition of 150. Artist Cory Arcangel has produced two very special Opening Editions for the occasion of Printed Matter's Virtual Art Book Fair (PMVABF). The common sticky note is often addressed to oneself. Here, the author scribbles a reminder to take a breath and scale down, but in a rush misspells and starts over. This humorous artwork by Cory Arcangel acknowledges the paradox of more is more; we try to manage it all, but soon enough our reminders need reminders. SimplySimplify is a new work produced as two editions, one as a digital download in an open edition, and the second as a limited edition screen print. The limited edition is produced as a fundraising edition in support of the PMVABF. The work will include a screen print on a Post-it safely attached to Rising Museum Board measuring 11x17 inches, with each print signed and numbered by the artist.
